The new M8's were visibly slower than the rest of the GTLM field, but they did look good.

Regardless, the Rolex 24 is a fantastic race, and the Daytona facility is first class.
Reason Corvette got the pole was because they got a HUGE tow coming down the back straight into and out of the bus stop coming to the line. Jan even admitted that was the only reason they got the pole.

Not bad for its first few months in the track. They will continue to do better, without a doubt
